"Glee" star Becca Tobin's boyfriend Matt Bendik was found dead Thursday in a Philadelphia hotel, according to TMZ.

Sources close to the couple told the website Becca was with the 35-year-old nightclub owner in Philadelphia while he was on a business trip. The couple was out on the town Wednesday with friends and everything reportedly seemed normal.

There were conflicting reports as to whether Tobin was with Bendik when he left for the hotel, according to TMZ, which also reported detectives want to interview the actress. Bendik's body was found face down in bed just after noon Thursday by a housekeeper. The last person to see him reportedly was the manager of a club just before midnight.

Law enforcement sources told the site they found no drugs or drug paraphernalia in Bendik's hotel room, and the police report didn't mention alcohol, medication or weapons. Preliminary examinations didn't find any visible injuries on Bendik's body. The Philadelphia Medical Examiner only confirmed Bendik's body was found.

Bendik ran several large clubs around the country. He was the Director of Operations at DBA in West Hollywood and a co-owner of AV Nightclub in Los Angeles. TMZ reported friends of Bendik said he wasn't known as a partyer.
